My Project

We are developing daily class work where students use technology to help in their education. Students are growing using speech to text. With a small classroom and multiple students, headphones with a microphone is so helpful. Please help my student improve their work and their confidence.

There are so many programs that students can use this technology.

We are working with Google ReadWrite and Docs to build writing assignments. This will give them the ability to use even more during class. It can get noisy in a classroom when all students are speaking into their computer. They will be more successful using a microphone.
